[texinfo.tex 2009-01-01.14]
The input
A @key{foo} B
in PDF shows an extra space after A. Patch below.
BTW, I consider it a bad idea that there is no more any special
indication in the printed output for @key -- this is too Emacs-centric
IMHO. For groff.texinfo I have, for example, this list of escapes in
the index:
\r
\R
\<RET>
\s
\S
\<SP>
In the printed manual, this looks like
\r
\R
\RET
\s
\S
\SP
where everything is typeset in typewriter font. Why not using <RET>
for @key{RET} in the PDF too?
